Comment:

 I think we need time to work on this need. From what I understand so far:

 If the plain text is used although `wp_mail` content type is filtered to
 be `text/html` is probably due to the fact some plugins might use their
 own template (header/footer) and forcing ours might be a problem.

 I also think only sending html e-mails can be problematic for receivers
 who set their mail software to only accept plain text. BP e-mails are
 including an alternate text version of the html e-mail for this case. I
 don’t see right now how we can/ if we need to check if the use made with
 `wp_mail` contains this alternate version (I know it’s possible).

 Let’s wait for contributions by the community or other members of the dev
 team.
